I had a few annoying things the last weeks.

When I and my mom visited my grandmother at a hospital, we greeted at my grandmother's new friends there. I expected everybody talking about my grandma, but she talked about me instead. She always tell people much about her own family. Grandma's new friend, another woman thought I was a guy. I passed and I was glad for that. But off course my grandmother and my mom destroyed my passing as always. :/ My parents knows I'm trans. My grandmother doesn't know. She's christian fundamentalist who doesn't support LGBT. The friend said I seemed like a nice guy, then Grandma said: "Oh no, no! It's a girl". My mom said then, "Yes, it's a girl. It's my daughter". That triggered my dysphoria. I get misgendered everyday and I wouldn't transistion before 18+. But when I pass and they reveal I'm not cis, that's especially annoying. :icon_sadblinky:

Another thing is the disaster of a "puberty". It makes my breast grows bigger and my dysphoria gets bigger. I have no idea where I can buy binders. I live in Norway. Before I could wear my shirts and my jacket without them showing, now I can't. I can still wear hoodies and big sweaters/jumpers without them showing. But it's very bad when I can't use my shirts without them showing. :icon_help:

Sorry to hear that :/. My brother still calls me by my birth name and pronouns; which always ruin my day. He did it yesterday which upto then I was feeling pretty good about myself. Anyway; GC2B ship internationally and are amazing. Definitely buy one if possible.
They/them pronouns preferred.

It's unfortunate that our families, the very people who we most look to for understanding and acceptance and support on this issue are so frequently the ones that undermine us and let us down. Although, to be fair to your grandmother, if she doesn't know then you can't really blame her for being unsupportive. I hope your mother comes around soon.
